Anyone can tell you who's already made it, but HuffPost Arts & Culture's On Our Radar series is here to tell you who's about to blow up -- and, in some cases, go pop.

You've probably heard the buzz around Joseph Gordon Levitt's directorial debut, "Don Jon's Addiction." The film stars JLG himself as a porn-addicted casanova who begins to question his womanizing ways. Although the film stars Scarlett Johansson, Julianne Moore and Tony Danza as well as the almighty Levitt, we have our eye on the comedic up-and-comer playing Levitt's best friend. Jeremy Luke, known for his web series "Turbo and Joey," plays Levitt's friend, a Jersey bred club hopper who, where the ladies are concerned, takes what he can get. We talked to Luke about Facebook, fame and the unbelievable beauty of ScarJo. Scroll down for a slideshow of Sundance's hottest new stars.

HP: Tell us about your character in "Don Jon's Addiction."

JL: I play Danny, Joseph Gordon Levitt's friend. Danny is the kind of guy who is in his late 20s, still going to clubs; he is a weekend warrior. His philosophy on women and dating is "go for the 2s and 3s, they're more open minded." Joe and I make a life out of going to clubs, objectifying women, and trying to pick them up.

HP: How did you wind up with the role?

JL: I was hanging out at this bar in my neighborhood and someone recognized me from my web show, "Turbo and Joey." This guy says he knows Joe and is looking for someone to play his best friend. They say they're looking for Jersey but I'm thinking it's going to be like "Garden State," so watered down. I wasn't expecting much, but I sent over some videos.

HP: The cast includes Joseph Gordon Levitt, Scarlett Johansson and Julianne Moore. What was it like to be surrounded by Hollywood's biggest stars?

JL: Scarlett Johansson is gorgeous. My scenes are primarily with Rob Brown, but man, she was stunning. I'm just a regular guy, so for me to be in the same room as Scarlett -- she was, like, so hot. And in the film she plays this character with kind of a trashy New York accent. When I was around her I just talked about my girlfriend a lot.

HP: Are you blowing up online?

JL: Yeah, a lot of Joe's fans are hitting up my Facebook wall and a lot of them are kind of weird. It's not like models, it's wackos.

HP: Who did you look at for inspiration when getting into character?

JL: To be honest, I looked at myself when i was 21, 22 years old. I'm sure there is a piece of that guy in all of us. Going out, objectifying women. Every guy has done it. It's a part of growing up.

HP: Does your character realize the error of his ways?

JL: Ha, nope. Joe's character realizes, but Danny has another five or six years.

HP: Your bio mentioned that you are more than just a Jersey boy. Do you think being from Jersey has helped your career or is limiting?

JL: Typecasting is a good and a bad thing. I get typecasted to play characters that are all, "Who's got the money?" BOOM! SLAP! "Joey's got the money!" But it gave me an angle. It gave me a way to work. But then again, I can do more than that; I've been acting for 15 years.

HP: How would your drama teacher describe you?

JL: He kicked me out of class. He was great, but honestly the real influence in my life was my acting coach in New York who gave me the inspiration to go out here to LA; it was not easy. I worked selling tickets for Dodger Stadium, I delivered pizza, I did every job under the sun. It's the part that sucks as an artist. But I've learned at the end of the day you just have to enjoy your life.

A lot of people just look at acting as a quick fix -- they don't have a work ethic. This is a job, it's not all margaritas on the beach.

"Don Jon's Addiction" premieres January 18.

LONDON -- "Death Wish" director Michael Winner, a British filmmaker, restaurant critic and bon vivant, has died at the age of 77.

Winner's wife Geraldine said he died Monday at his London home after an illness.

Winner's 30 movies included three "Death Wish" films starring the late Charles Bronson.

Born in London in 1935, Winner worked with Hollywood icons including Marlon Brando, Burt Lancaster, Robert Mitchum and Faye Dunaway – although many of his films sit at the schlockier end of the spectrum.

One of his earliest films was the 1962 nudist feature "Some Like It Cool"; later he specialized in thrillers and action movies, including "The Mechanic," "Scorpio" and the violent vigilante "Death Wish" series.

Winner never took criticism of his films too seriously.

"If you want art, don't mess about with movies," he once said. "Buy a Picasso."

He had a second career as restaurant critic with the "Winners Dinners" column in the Sunday Times newspaper. His acerbic verdicts got him barred from some eateries, and his highest praise was to declare a meal "historic."

In later years he was famous for a series of insurance ads with the catchphrase "Calm down, dear!" Prime Minister David Cameron once used the phrase to a female lawmaker in the House of Commons, prompting howls of outrage.

He also founded and helped fund a campaign to erect a London memorial to police officers killed in the line of duty.

Winner had experienced health problems since getting a bacterial infection from bad oysters in 2007.

He wrote his final column in December, but refused to say goodbye forever.

"Who knows, after Christmas I might make a comeback," he wrote. "How many times did Sinatra do it?"

His wife, a former dancer who married Winner two years ago, said he was "a wonderful man, brilliant, funny and generous. A light has gone out in my life."

Worry not, "Girls" fans: The Golden Globe-winning HBO series isn't going anywhere.

While chatting with Alec Baldwin on his podcast "Here's The Thing" on Monday, "Girls" creator and star Lena Dunham revealed that she has a six-year contract with HBO.

"HBO contractually has me I think as an actor for six years, but as a writer and director ... I should pay more attention to my deals," Dunham told Baldwin. "But I’m just so excited to have my job, I just go, ‘OK, whatever you say.’"

Only two episodes into Season 2, the controversial series has already scored two Golden Globes.

"This award is for every woman who felt like there wasn't a space for her," Dunham said in her Globes acceptance speech for Best Actress In A TV Comedy Series. "This show has made a space for me."

"Girls" airs on Sundays at 9 p.m. EST on HBO.

Taylor Swift has made a career singing about her love life, but every breakup that inspires her to write yet another hit song is fodder for endless jokes at the singer's expense.

Making fun of Swift's short-lived, high-profile romances has become somewhat of a sport in Hollywood, and though the singer has done nothing but cash in on her heartache, RadarOnline claims the public mockery is starting to take a toll on the 23-year-old.

"At first Taylor just thought it was funny how much interest people had in her love life and she went along with it,” a friend of Swift's told the website. “But now she’s the butt of jokes on Saturday Night Live, in the tabloids and on the late night shows. She laughed it off, but the jokes made about her at the Golden Globes got under her skin.”

Swift's alleged pal is, of course, referring to Tina Fey playfully telling the singer to stay away from Michael J. Fox's son Sam, while she was hosting the award show. It was a joke that took on a life of its own, when Fox later told reporters he wouldn't approve of his son dating Swift, because he wouldn't want her to write a song about him once they broke up.

“The jokes being made about her love life embarrass her, but it’s finally hit home with Taylor,” the singer's friend told RadarOnline, adding that she wants to make an effort not to jump into relationships so quickly. " In a weird way all the negative press has really opened her eyes and will be good for her!”

Swift's string of failed relationships includes Jake Gyllenhaal, John Mayer, Conor Kennedy, and most recently, One Direction's Harry Styles. And though she's always seemed to feed on the attention that comes with a breakup -- playing right into it with a tweet about being back in the studio right after her breakup with Styles -- it's possible that the singer has realized the notoriety she's gained from her romantic endeavors is close to eclipsing her talents.

The singer appeared to be genuinely hurt by Fox's comments, so much so that the 51-year-old actor reached out to Swift to smooth things over. Last week, Swift tweeted, "Hey everybody, Michael J. Fox got in touch with me today and we are good. Thank you for having my back." It's clear that Swift was embarrassed enough by the joke that she needed to broadcast that things were cool between her and the actor.

The interconnections between Quentin Tarantino's screenplays go further than Red Apple cigarettes.

For instance, Alabama (Patricia Arquette) in the Tarantino-scripted "True Romance" gets referenced in "Reservoir Dogs," which also happens to feature Vic Vega (Michael Madsen), brother of Vincent Vega from "Pulp Fiction" (John Travolta). Then there's Donny Donowitz (Eli Roth) in "Inglourious Basterds," the father of movie producer Lee Donowitz (Saul Rubinek) in "True Romance." Now, a thorough Redditor named thefirerisesnolan has found out where "Django Unchained" fits in Tarantino's family tree.

As it turns out, "Django Unchained" references a character named "Crazy Craig Coons" (his name is spotted on a wanted poster); Coons is also the last name of Christopher Walken's character in "Pulp Fiction," the captain who visits young Butch to return his father's war watch.

Don't feel bad if you didn't catch the hat tip; not even Tarantino could remember which character from "Pulp Fiction" had origins in "Django Unchained."

"You know, I got to think about that. I actually -- I've spaced," Tarantino told Jake Hamilton (who you remember from that awkward Samuel L. Jackson video interview). "I know what you're talking about. There actually is one character in the film, but I can't think of it right now. [...] It's so minor, it's so minor."

Watch Tarantino discuss this with Hamilton in the video below (starting at 3:28).

When "Girls" creator Lena Dunham told Alec Baldwin on his podcast "Here's The Thing" that Season 3 of "Girls" would begin shooting in March, Baldwin told her he would be available.

"I’ll come and play your therapist," he said of Dunham's Hannah Horvath. "You need one ... bad."

All jokes aside, Baldwin may actually be available in March with the final season of "30 Rock" coming to an end. And although he's now sad to say goodbye to the beloved NBC series, there was a time when Baldwin was ready to ditch his character Jack Donaghy a season early.

"It was the low point," he told Rolling Stone. "Though even anemic '30 Rock' writing is still better than everybody else's writing. I go, 'I'm going to get the fuck out of here, I'm done,' because I'm an employee, I don't have any say. So Season 5 ends, and I'm saying 'Next year, I'm done,' then I come back, and Season 6 is really good, we all had fun again."

"Girls" airs on Sundays at 9 p.m. EST on HBO.

Former "Saved By the Bell" star Tiffani Thiessen (yes, she dropped the name Amber back in 2000) strips down to her undies for a sexy new photo shoot for the website Me In My Place.

The 38-year-old, who currently stars on "White Collar," but will always be remembered for her role as perky cheerleader Kelly Kapowski on the beloved '90s teen series, opened up to the website about the pressure she faced as a young actress who quickly garnered sex symbol status.

"I think any time you are on a hit show as a young actor or actress, you feel [pressured]. Then as a woman, there’s some additional pressures you feel to look a certain way and be a certain size. I was not the girl that was a size 2 and didn’t work for it. I was never the waify model type," she explained.

She may not be "waify," but Thiessen has never been shy about showing off her attributes, but that doesn't mean she's used to having others discuss her body. When asked about radio host Howard Stern's assertion that she had the "most perfect breasts" in the world, Thiessen admitted she was flattered.

"He first said that around the time that first FHM cover came out, it came up again when I did his show again last year. I’m not gonna say I’m not flattered, he’s Howard Stern, Howard knows boobs. The fact that he talked about me positively, I’ll take it!" she told the website. "He was really nice and complimentary, in his own special way he was very respectful."

Just when we think we've got Lady Gaga pegged, she goes and surprises us. The pop star emerged on Monday in West Hollywood looking very not Gaga-like... and oddly enough, rather Rachel Zoe-like.

Gaga was shopping at Kitson Kids(cue the baby bump rumors?) in a floral maxi dress, oversized sunglasses, majorly high platform heels and a giant hat (which reads slightly more Stetson that fashion). Between that and the big designer handbag thrown over her arm, Gaga was looking more like power stylist Rachel Zoe than herself.

This isn't actually the first time Lady Gaga has stepped out looking like a Rachel Zoe doppleganger... but it might be one of our favorites.

"Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Adrienne Maloof is the latest celebrity to take a dip in the cougar pool.

The 51-year-old is dating Rod Stewart's troubled son Sean Stewart, who is 19 years her junior.

Stewart, 32, and Maloof were seen out and about in Beverly Hills on Jan. 19 after enjoying a romantic dinner at the restaurant Crustacean. The pair was spotted kissing and cuddling as they left the California eatery -- and there are pictures to prove it.

Maloof reached a divorce settlement with her husband of 10 years, Paul Nassif, in November, after claiming he had physically abused her throughout their marriage. And Stewart, a recovering addict who has made headlines over the years for his run-ins with the law, was previously engaged to Kansas City Royals star Jason Kendall's ex-wife Chantel Kendall, who was nine years older than him.

But Maloof and Stewart aren't the only stars who share a May-December romance.

Check out other celebrities who've dated much younger partners below:

These days, our knowledge of celebrities too often originates with paparazzi images and snarky quotes by anonymous "insiders." After a while, it's easy to forget that stars are real people. That's why HuffPost Celebrity decided to launch its all-new #nofilter quick-fire question and answer series. Because how well do you know someone until they've shared their guiltiest pleasures?

Nerdist's delightfully trippy web series "Neil's Puppet Dreams" has seen Neil Patrick Harris get probed by fuzzy aliens, come face to face with a puppet version of Chris Hansen and have his "trouser weasel" examined by the aptly named Dr. Feltman. And the series' final installment, released today, gets the Bollywood treatment (rapping cow included). "You can never have enough puppets in your life, whether they’re for your children or for singing musical numbers," Harris tells The Huffington Post. Truer words have never been spoken. In honor of the finale, we talked to Harris about the hazards of puppet dreaming as well as his non-puppet viewing habits.

Have you always wanted to work with puppets?
I’m a little obsessed with puppets. Jim Henson was my idol growing up, the only person I wrote a fan letter to when I was a kid. I try to make them; I have a whole puppet workshop in my garage and got to tour the New York Jim Henson studio there and collect all the books. So, when Chris Hardwick of Nerdist asked if I wanted to have a show on his channel, his way to grab me was to say, maybe it could be in collaboration with the Jim Henson puppets. I leapt.

Where did you come up with the concept?
It was a core group of friends who are also comedy writers, David [Burtka], myself and Janet Varney were the three co-exec producers. And Michael Serrato and Brian Clark, two of our very close frends, wrote a lot of them. We didn't even know whether they should all be music videos or a linear story. Janet came up with the thought, what if they were all dreams, and that got us thinking that they could be radically different in style as dreams would be, but could also be as lo-fi and budget-looking as we needed. From there, we started looking at classic dreams that people have, of falling, or death or loving cows, and we tried to figure out what was shootable and what was dark and funny but not offensive.

In the episode "To Catch a Puppeteer,” you spoof "To Catch a Predator." What else deserves a puppet parody?
We liked the idea of doing Madonna’s "Papa Don't Preach" and calling it "Puppet Don't Preach" with a shot-for-shot reenactment with puppets, but I'm not sure we can afford the rights to Madge’s music.

Any advice for others who "dream in puppet"?
I encourage as much puppet dreaming as possible. Just be careful of arm rods. They can hurt.

What’s your guiltiest pleasure?
Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

What’s the silliest thing you’ve ever lied about?
Watching porn.

If you were on a reality show what would it be called?
“Celebrity Survivor 1.”

If you were on death row, what would your last meal be?
Spaghetti bolognese and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

How did you get on death row?
Probably dismemberment.

What shows are always on your DVR?
“The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” “Wipe Out” and “Homeland,” which I have yet to watch. And “Property Brothers.”

What’s your go-to-excuse?
I’ve been super-busy.

What’s one thing you do alone that you wouldn’t do in front of someone else?
Online shopping.

What’s one thing from your childhood wardrobe you wish you could wear now?
I’m a big fan of the onesie.

What’s on your nightstand?
A glass of water, an iPhone charger, and the new Jim Henson book, “Imagination Illustrated.”

Have you ever stolen anything?
No, my brother did and got caught for it and I was an observer of that.

What would people be surprised to know you’ve never done?
I’ve never taken taken any sort of dance class.

What’s one item that’s always in your refrigerator?
Pace Picante sauce, medium.

Who’s your ideal drinking buddy, living or dead?
Walt Disney.

What happens in your recurring dream?
I have a recurring dream that I’m in school, but I’m a new student there and I’m lost and can’t find where I’m supposed to go.

If you were undead, would you be a vampire, zombie or ghost?
A vampire -- they’re much more sexual, aren’t they? Zombies eat brains and ghosts can’t touch people.

What did you have for dinner last night?
We ordered in Thai food.

If you were on an online dating site, what would your profile name be?
Taken.

Angelina Jolie, she of The Leg, doesn't let her overwhelming fame go to her head.

In an interview with Total Film magazine the 37-year-old stunner opened up about her and fiance Brad Pitt's lifestyle. ''The great thing about having a bunch of kids is they just remind you that you're the person who takes them to go poop!'' said Jolie, according to ContactMusic.

The Jolie-Pitt clan consists of the two A-listers and their six children: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh and twins Knox and Vivienne. Despite being known worldwide, Jolie insists ''we have a very normal, very grounded home. And we're friends, and we have a laugh with our kids," quotes ContactMusic from the Total Film interview.

How do they deal with the swarms of paparazzi waiting on their every move? "We just explain to our kids that people like to take pictures of people who make movies. And that's all it is. It's not anything special about mommy and daddy - we just happen to make movies.''

On that note, Jolie also talked about "In the Land of Blood and Honey," her film set in the Bosnian War and the first she's ever directed.

"I didn't set out to ever become a director or write a script. I was never intending to make a film," said the Academy Award-winning actress. “I've been traveling for over 10 years to these conflict and post-conflict zones, and thinking about what happens to people when they live inside these situations, and how their humanity is just stripped apart ... So I wanted to have a meditation on what this is and how people who are neighbours can turn against each other."

Keep 'em coming, Ang!

President Barack Obama's second inauguration on Monday featured performances from Kelly Clarkson, James Taylor, and a rousing rendition of the National Anthem from Beyoncé. Now, reports are surfacing that Beyoncé was lip-synching her performance.

“All music is pre-recorded for the ceremony because there are so many eventualities and conditions that day,” United States Marine Band rep Kristin DuBois told Page Six.“We performed, live, the band. But we received last-minute word that Beyonce was going to use the pre-recorded vocal track. Those were the instructions we were given. We don’t know what the reason why.”

The Washingtonian reports that "it was evident that the band wasn't actually playing during the song."

Earlier, Beyoncé posted a photo to her Instagram account of herself holding the sheet music to "The Star Spangled Banner" in a recording studio.

Beyoncé surprised viewers when she ripped out her earpiece mid-performance. But according to these reports, the earpiece was unnecessary in the first place.

As Washington Post's Jessica Goldstein noted, one of the most celebrated performances of the National Anthem was Whitney Houston's in 1991, which was also lip-synched.

After a year full of exceptional films and stellar performances it all comes down to the Academy Awards. Several races this year have a clear frontrunner, but as the days leading up to the Oscars tick down, the leading contender in the Best Actress race is increasingly unclear.

With five talented actresses (Jennifer Lawrence, Jessica Chastain, Naomi Watts, Emmanuelle Riva and Quvenzhane Wallis) competing for the prestigious award, the task of deciding which actress/performance will come out on top is extremely difficult. As is the case most years, the category has whittled its way down to two possible victors; unlike most years, the race looks about dead even between Chastain for Zero Dark Thirty and Lawrence for Silver Linings Playbook.

Chastain owns the screen as the CIA operative with an unwavering determination to find and kill terrorist Osama bin Laden. Meanwhile, Lawrence lights up the screen as a young widow struggling to fight her own personal demons and find the silver lining in her life. Since the roles are so different from each other it makes it hard to compare them to one another, but not impossible.

In Zero Dark Thirty, Chastain's character, Maya, buries her emotions down deep and dedicates her entire life to the manhunt for Osama bin Laden. Few times in the film does the audience really see who Maya is and what her emotions are. The scenes when she finally lets her emotions seep out are the best in the film, because they provides the audience with someone we can relate to and root for. Understandably, Chastain's character was supposed to be stoic and withdrawn, and the actress did a fantastic job conveying that to the audience; her emotional scenes, however, were definitely Chastain's strongest. While Chastain's character had very little emotion, her strength and perseverance bring a strong presence to the screen for the majority of the film.

Lawrence's Tiffany is a completely different role: She is very emotional, but has extreme depth as well. Lawrence portrays Tiffany and her struggles in a way that does not exploit mental illness, but instead proves to audiences that mental illness does not define one's life. Lawrence takes her character to a very deep and emotional place, allowing audiences to see her vulnerability and her strength within her vulnerability (Tiffany is a character that not only knows what her vulnerability is but accepts it). Lawrence also brings much needed laughs to the film on multiple occasions.

Though the race between Chastain and Lawrence is still too close to call, the Screen Actor Guild Awards on Jan. 27 should shed some light onto whom the real frontrunner is. As for right now, I see Jennifer Lawrence walking away with the statue Feb. 24, due to the more emotional and less methodical role she played.

Beyoncé stunned the world with her performance of the American national anthem at Obama's inauguration on Monday - but it has now been reported that she mimed the whole thing.

Well, if it's good enough for Cheryl Cole, it's good enough for Bey we suppose.

According to The Times, the singer opted to lip-synch her rendition of 'The Star-Spangled Banner' at Monday's event.

A spokesperson for the Marine Corp Band appeared to confirm the speculation over her vocals when they told the paper it was was "standard procedure" to record a backing track, with the Destiny's Child singer only choosing to use it just before taking to the stage.

Kelly Clarkson also sang a rendition of 'My Country 'Tis of Thee' at yesterday's swearing-in ceremony.

With a new wave of '90s nostalgia in the air, Mark-Paul Gosselaar might be open to a "Saved By The Bell" reunion.

When TMZ asked whether he'd be watching the "Boy Meets World" spinoff "Girl Meets World," the actor best known as Zack Morris replied, "Yeah, I'll see how they do it and maybe we'll do a reunion as well."

Gosselaar, who currently stars on TNT's "Franklin & Bash," has had a complicated relationship with the show that made him a teen star. In a June 2012 interview with Yahoo! TV, he said the beloved '90s sitcom was "not a great show" that featured "hokey writing" that was "very much a piece of that time."

He later clarified his comments, professing that he was taken out of context and that he was "proud of that show." Gosselaar pointed out that "everything I've ever done after the show has pointed to me having nothing but respect for it."

Gosselaar conducted a "Late Night" interview in-character as Zack Morris when Jimmy Fallon was championing a "Saved By The Bell" reunion in 2009. Tiffani Thiessen ultimately nixed that effort, but perhaps she'd be more open to going back to Bayside this time around.

The woman who taught us how to "Vogue" is now going to teach us how to work out! That's right -- Madonna, along with her personal trainer Nicole Winhoffer, is launching a new DVD series called "Addicted To Sweat.”

“In 2010 Madonna opened her first gym in Mexico City, and the idea for the opening was to teach a cardio class. She thought that would be a great idea, so we taught a class and the members loved it. She led the class and I was next to her,” her personal trainer Nicole tells The Huffington Post. “I always document the programs I do with her, and we went through my diary and she chose one of the programs to turn into the DVD, which she named 'Addicted to Sweat.'”

Explaining that her job is really a liaison to Madonna, making sure the queen of pop gives her stamp of approval to all aspects of the gyms and DVDs, Nicole insists that Madonna picks everything from the music, to the routine, to the look of each DVD.

“Fitness is so important to her because she’s one to empower people. She is an example -- not just as a pop icon, but an example as a businesswoman, an entrepreneur, a woman that's in shape,” says Nicole. “The only way she is able to get through her day and schedule all her meetings and to be there for her children is to have a fit body. She makes time in her schedule for the workout. It gets her mind and body to connect. She always wants to be the best and everyone around her to be the best. Her fitness is the key. She’s the perfect example to share her workout with people around the world.”

Nicole says Madonna's gyms may be coming to the U.S. in the future. But for now, we can all say goodbye to Jane Fonda and hello to Madonna while exercising in front of the TV.

Beyoncé's February cover interview in GQ was ostensibly about "her big post-baby comeback" -- but some of her most revealing comments about life after pregnancy have only just been published.

In outtakes from the interview published on GQ.com, the singer (whose performance of the national anthem -- lip-synced or not -- wowed the world on Monday) elaborates on the emotional impact of giving birth to now 1-year-old Blue Ivy.

The star says giving birth was "the first time [she] truly let go and surrendered," going on to discuss the "sensuality" and increased self-confidence she's found in new motherhood:

"Giving birth made me realize the power of being a woman. I have so much more substance in my life. And expressing that excitement and that sensuality and the connection I have with my husband -- I'm a lot more comfortable with that now. I actually feel like my child introduced me to myself."

She also talks openly about how rumors that she had "faked" her pregnancy affected her family, saying she felt the need to "protect" her mom from nasty comments. "She was there when I went through all of those things. And my sister. They were very, very defensive." (Beyoncé's mother has spoken out in the past about the pain these rumors caused.)

In a recently-released trailer for her upcoming HBO documentary "Life Is But A Dream," a pregnant Beyoncé reveals more of the challenges of hiding her baby news from the public while performing live -- and we even see a sonogram of Blue Ivy.

Bey's post-baby happiness, of course, has been no secret: "I have never felt so connected, never felt like I had such a purpose on this earth," the singer told People last spring.

Americans firmly believe every public figure MUST apologize for their transgressions. What does it say about our culture that we fetishize and revel in these apologies? Comedian Gilbert Gottfried, who knows a thing or two about having to apologize, joined HuffPost Live to discuss our national obsession with rubbing well-known noses in it.

Flux Pavilion (born Joshua Steele) is the dubstep artist that non-dubstep fans are most likely to have heard. That's because Kanye West and Jay-Z turned Steele's "I Can't Stop" into "Who Gon' Stop Me," a car speaker-rattling track on the duo's album "Watch the Throne."

The British producer has a string of other genre hits to his name, including "Bass Cannon" (an appropriately named track that's a mainstay in sets for just about every EDM act who has played at a venue like New York's Webster Hall) and a more recent collaboration with Diplo's Major Lazer, "Jah No Partial."

He's back at it again with "Blow the Roof," an 8-track EP that hits the web on Jan. 28. HuffPost Entertainment is exclusively debuting "I Feel It," a glitchy joint that sounds like a French version of your favorite video game theme song (listen above). The rest of the EP features standout collaborations with buzzy artists like Childish Gambino (Donald Glover's rap persona). Ahead, read our emails with Steele, in which we discuss what Kanye and Jay-Z did for his career, what he hopes to accomplish with the EP and what he wishes would change about the EDM scene.

This track feels a bit like an 8-bit take on a more electro, French-touch type of sound. What were you listening to while making it?
I adore French electronic music on the whole, it wasn't anything in particular that I worked with, I don't think. French chord construction is something that I have always found pretty inspiring when I'm writing. I was always setting out to do something French on this record.

The presser for the EP notes that you avoided "trap-tropes," and congrats on that. What else were you trying to avoid while producing the new EP?
Thanks -- I don't feel I was trying to avoid anything, but more in a sense trying to explore something new with each track, which in turn didn't allow me to linger too much on a single sound or idea. It was important to me for this EP to contain some slightly different shades of sound even though it's quite an upfront collection of tracks. I think you can hear that the inspiration for my sound comes fundamentally from the dance floor, but the inspiration for my composition comes from many different places.

Do you feel a bit freer as the dust settles from "Watch the Throne" buzz? Is there more pressure to re-define your sound?
Not at all. I've been working on this record for the past two years of my life, things have happened to inspire and excite me in my career, but the catalyst for creation is always purely the enjoyment of creating it, I try really hard not to feel pressure from my achievements because I don't think it's really that necessary for making good music.

In what ways, if any, did hearing Kanye and Jay's take on your track change how you saw your own music? Were there any realizations that came out of that that made their way into this EP?
It reminded me that I love hip hop. I love the groove that good hip hop music has, Jurassic 5 beats are some of the most effortlessly groovy pieces of music I have ever heard, not too mention the entire Dilla/Madlib side of things. The Jay-Z/Kanye thing kinda made me see the hip-hop in my own work and tantalized me to bring it out a little more. It's something I'm definitely exploring in my writing.

You worked with Donald Glover on "Do or Die." From Kanye/Jay to Azealia Banks to Angel Haze to Childish, what do you think of this rap-rave wave? What are some of your favorite hip-hop/rap albums or tracks?
Hmmmm, such a hard question. Donald was an absolute pleasure to work with, I'm a big fan of his output for sure. I just recently slipped back into "The Chronic" and I wasn't disappointed! I could never choose a favorite I'm afraid, but its always got to have groove (so obvious right?).

To those who weren't paying attention, dubstep came up pretty quickly, and some of your tracks were among the posterboys of the more aggressive variety that blew up in the states. What's next for the genre, and what's next for you as an artist?
As an artist, I'm gonna keep writing and see what comes out. I don't feel like I'm done with this sound. "Do or Die" has sparked up something in me. I can see hip-hop and dubstep sliding together, it was always there but with trap coming back into the picture decent vocalists are sure to follow. Well, I hope so anyway, would love to get someone like Frank Ocean on a hook. Bass music does have some very key characteristics right now, but I still don't see any limitations. 

What's one thing you find inspiring about the scene as you tour, and one thing you wish was different?
I am always inspired by the connection that people have with music. It's a unifying entity and I think it does a lot of good for the human race. I wish that people would realize that writing music electronically doesn't mean a thing in terms of creativity or skill. Just because you can play guitar doesn't mean you are a musician, just because you use a laptop it doesn't mean that you aren't.
